Subject: PR26415 UBSAN: vms-misc.c:636 left shift cannot be represented
Date: Wed, 26 Aug 2020 23:15:05 +0930	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200826134505.GF15695@bubble.grove.modra.org> (raw)

An unsigned short value is promoted to int, thus triggering UB on a
left shift of a positive value that results in a negative int.

	PR 26415
	* vms-misc.c (vms_time_t_to_vms_time): Don't use unsigned short vars.
